A Rustic-Modern Dream at Blue Dress Barn

When Alyssa stumbled across Blue Dress Barn, she instantly knew it was the vibe she had been searching for. With its modern-rustic charm and naturally beautiful surroundings, it was the perfect place to celebrate a day filled with love, laughter, and some seriously stylish touches.

The weather? Perfection. Low 70s, sunny, and the kind of day you dream of when planning an outdoor ceremony.

A Ceremony With Personal Vows & One Sweet Surprise

Alyssa and Leo’s ceremony was heartfelt, emotional, and full of intention. Their personalized vows had everyone tearing up, and the moment was made even more unforgettable when Leo was surprised with a puppy as a wedding gift. (Yeah, that definitely takes the cake for best wedding surprise.)

And speaking of surprises they kept it light and fun all day with glow-up dance sticks, a DIY cigar bar, and custom napkins filled with fun facts about the couple.

A Moment Just for Them

One of Alyssa’s favorite parts of the entire day? Sneaking out during the reception for a quick photo session with Leo as the sun started to set. That quiet moment just the two of them, no crowd, no pressure was exactly what they needed.

It’s the kind of pause that lets everything sink in. You’re married. You did it. Now just soak it in.

Reception Energy: Fully Unlocked

With an acoustic first dance to Here Tonight by Brett Young, s’mores by the fire, and a venue that practically glowed at golden hour, the reception was everything they’d dreamed it would be.

The vibe was celebration meets cozy barn party, and every guest felt it. Even with a few last-minute guest list changes and family photo chaos (we handled it 😎), the night flowed with love and laughter.

From the Couple

Alyssa shared some heartfelt advice for future couples:

“Don’t worry about the little things, like last-minute cancellations. And remember, this is your wedding. People will always have opinions, but do what you want and make it yours.”

And when we asked what they were most looking forward to post-wedding?

“Spending time with our new puppy and just living life married.”
